NR 8248 9193. The remains of a circular enclosure situated on peat in a low-lying and generally marshy area. Its size and insubstantial construction are not typical of the homesteads known locally, (see NR79SE 4, 5?) and its situation is not suited to a habitation site.
The fact that it is on the surface of considerable peat growth and that its predecessor is still partially extant suggest that this feature is not prehistoric. Its age and purpose, therefore, remain uncertain. The cross from this site is still at St Columba's Chapel (see NR89NW 55). Surveyed at 1/10,000.
